Research<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/ht-apps.eu\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HT Apps<\/a>, become front-runners of the MINERVA project.<\/p><p>The project involves the creation of an innovative company training platform based on e-learning systems able to integrate with training courses carried out in virtual reality (VR). The aim is to offer the user an innovative and stimulating learning environment in which digital educational content is joined with objects or tools that show real-life situations.<\/p><p>This new platform will allow manufacturing companies to experiment with new ways of company training, allowing the creation of immersive environments for learning business processes related to the use of machines and equipment, in order to allow employees to simulate both the simplest operations, such as mounting the components of a machine, and the more complex ones, which involve potential risks in the production process.<\/p><p>For this reason, the characteristics of the e-learning and VR modules will be taken into account and the mechanisms for sending and receiving data will be established that will have to be interfaced through the use of the interchange bridge, a fundamental tool to ensure the correctness of the data and compliance with the parameters. From chance to case it will be established whether the data interchange system will take place only at the beginning and end of the course or in real-time throughout the execution of virtual reality activities.<\/p><p>Evaluating the teaching material used in VR and e-learning systems is very complex, because it is a question of analysing (and then integrating) aspects related to cognitive and dynamic psychology, pedagogy and training sciences, technology and business organisation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3261766 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3261766\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">CONCLUSION <\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-de83b06 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"de83b06\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Speaking of e-learning, the companies that develop digital technologies aimed at LMS are not many in Italy and among these we can mention <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitecoelearning.eu\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">VITECO e-Learning Solutions<\/a>, a company based in Catania, which develops intuitive and easy-to-use LMS throughout Europe, serious games and online courses converted into SCORM, the international standard for the creation of distance training courses.<\/p>\n<p>Virtual reality will increasingly become an integral part of our daily life and you can see it from the different contexts in which it begins to be applied: from museums to online e-shops.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>VR application development is a complex process and there is a growing interest in tools that allow users to develop virtual reality applications.
